Power Considerations For Memory-Related Microarchitecture Designs, Zhichun Zhu
Power Considerations For Memory-Related Microarchitecture Designs, Zhichun Zhu
Dissertations, Theses, and Masters Projects
The fast performance improvement of computer systems in the last decade comes with the consistent increase on power consumption. In recent years, power dissipation is becoming a design constraint even for high-performance systems. Higher power dissipation means higher packaging and cooling cost, and lower reliability. This Ph.D. dissertation will investigate several memory-related design and optimization issues of general-purpose computer microarchitectures, aiming at reducing the power consumption without sacrificing the performance. The memory system consumes a large percentage of the system's power. In addition, its behavior affects the processor power consumption significantly. In this dissertation, we propose two schemes to address …
Domain And Type Enforcement In Linux, Serge Edward Hallyn
Domain And Type Enforcement In Linux, Serge Edward Hallyn
Dissertations, Theses, and Masters Projects
Domain and Type Enforcement (DTE) is a simple and well-known access control system, which has been used at the microkernel level in SPIN, the kernel level in Unix, and the user-space library level in CORBA. This work implements DTE as a Linux Security Module, and provides tools for the composition and analysis of policies. The goal is to bring Mandatory Access Control in Linux to the level of ease of use of cryptography tools and libraries.;Tools have been created to edit DTE policies and query transitions through different privilege levels. A subtle modification of the Bell LaPadula (BLP) access control …

Ann Wave Prediction Model For Winter Storms And Hurricanes, Jun-Young. Kim
Ann Wave Prediction Model For Winter Storms And Hurricanes, Jun-Young. Kim
Dissertations, Theses, and Masters Projects
Currently available wind-wave prediction models require a prohibitive amount of computing time for simulating non-linear wave-wave interactions. Moreover, some parts of wind-wave generation processes are not fully understood yet. For this reason accurate predictions are not always guaranteed. In contrast, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) techniques are designed to recognize the patterns between input and output so that they can save considerable computing time so that real-time wind-wave forecast can be available to the navy and commercial ships. For this reason, this study tries to use ANN techniques to predict waves for winter storms and hurricanes with much less computing time …
